| Introduction | The title of The Elder Statesman came from the fact that I am the oldest out of my group of friends. Often, when enjoying fun times and adult beverages with friends, people would comment on my relaxed and sometimes patriarchal demeanor. So I joked that I was the "elder statesman" of the group. I'm a twenty something graduate student in Dallas, TX. I am a graduate of Southern Methodist University with a degree in Economics. I love Economics as much as I love Catholicism. I'm one of the few cradle Catholics I know who never left the church. Hence, I study both vigorously. Aside from price theory and theology I enjoy the finer things in life like scandal, intrigue, and baseball. |

What kind of tape is best for creating a sculpture?
This is the easiest random question ever. The only answer is duct tape. It is super adhesive, when folded on itself it is completely rigid, and silver/gray color is attractive yet understated.
